We are having our family Christmas celebration today. I decided to make a pork roast instead of ham since we’ll be eating ham at all of our other parties. This is a Betty Crocker recipe I found shortly after I got married. Every time I make it everyone loves it. Plus it’s super simple! That’s always good. I already put it in the crockpot this morning. It will be so tender by dinner time tonight. I’ll update with pics of the finished product later. For now I have pics of the roast just after putting it in the crockpot.
Slow Cooker Pork Roast with Fruit
1 medium onion, sliced
1 pork boneless loin roast (2 lbs.)
1 pkg. (8 oz.) dried fruit, chopped or 1 1/2 cups raisins (I used a combo of raisins and home dried apples, peaches and pears)
1/2 cup apple juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
Put onion in crockpot. Place pork on onion. Top with fruit. Mix remaining ingredients and pour over fruit. Cook on low 7-9 hours (until pork is tender).
Yum! I love this roast recipe! I should make it again soon… even better with home-dried fruit, I bet!!
